Hollis is 8 months old...here's a look at month 7

 I'm 8 months old today!
 So Handsome and Happy

 Playing Peek-a-boo with Clayton in the Tent
 Where are you???
 Look at my big boy...pulling up and standing!
 Who knew a cardboard box could be this much fun!

 What?!

 Watching Dora :)
 Playing trains with Clayton
 My Little Monkey
 Daddy helping me "walk"
 Time to lower the mattress!!!  Look at this happy boy, so proud of himself :)

Yes...he is always this happy :)


Boy has this month been a busy one for our little Hollis man!!!  He is just meeting milestones left and right.  Here is a look at what he has been up to...

*He is such a happy, sweet baby, and loves to cuddle!!!  He has the best smile :)

*I think he is going to be my shy one.  When someone he isn't very familiar with talks to him, he will smile but lay his head on my shoulder and try to hide.  It is so precious

*He is a big time Mommy's boy!!!  As long as I'm not in sight he is okay, but if he sees me and I don't have him, he puckers that little lip up and wants Mommy!

*Says Mama with intention now, knows what it means

*He cut two teeth in one week!  He has his bottom two teeth and boy are they cute!

*Loves toys now and can really play with them and entertain himself for longer periods of time.  He loves the play room, lots of things he can get into in there!

*Absolutely loves bath time and loves to splash with his hands.  He is going to be a little fishy like his brother.  He doesn't mind water in his face at all.  When they are in the bath together and Clayton splashes he just laughs and laughs.  I love that they aren't afraid of the water!

*He now loves to swing.  For awhile when we first got our swing set, he didn't like being in the swing.  Now he falls asleep every time.

*Has noticed TV and will smile and laugh when the show Dora is on

*Tried puffs for the first time, his first solid food

*Is on 2nd foods now and has tried many new flavors...I have yet to find one he didn't like.  I think he is going to be a good eater!

*Loves to be sang to and really loves the games peek-a-boo and pat-a-cake

*When he gets excited about something he gets those arms and legs going and starts "talking"

*Getting better about riding in the car

*He is just the sweetest, most loving baby who loves to cuddle, smile, "talk", and bring an enormous amount of joy to our lives!!!!!!!!!!  We love our Hollis Man

*He is officially a crawler and he is everywhere and into everything!

*He can pull up now, if you stand him up next to something, he can stand while holding onto something.  I really think he is going to be an early walker!!!

*We had to lower this crib because Daddy went in to get him the other morning and he was standing up!!!  Such a big boy :)

*Such a good natured baby.  He is so laid back and easy going, you can take him just about anywhere and he is happy.  He just takes it all in. 

*He is a little cuddle bug, and I love it.  He will grab your face and just love on you, and lay on your shoulder

*Very fond of his thumb and sleeps with a little blue elephant blanky baby
